Structural Biology (Taught)

Build skills towards a successful career in research on this Master's course, which specialises in structural biology.

You'll receive in-depth training of structural biology techniques.

Knowing the structure of a protein is vital to understanding how the protein works.

This course will provide an overview of the techniques used to derive biological function from structure.

You'll become familiar with the macromolecular structural determination techniques needed for success.

Extensive laboratory-based research will provide opportunities to learn skills in areas including biological NMR, X-ray crystallography, cryoEM, and structural bioinformatics.

You'll also consolidate your learning through workshops on topics from time management to clarity in writing.

The course immerses you in a research environment and includes networking by organising talks from structural biology researchers from outside of Imperial.
